Why do coaches ALWAYS wear baseball caps?

Ummm… I'm a muslim woman too. I don'twear a hijab, and I don’t like your stereotypes about muslim women.

Does Diljeet Taylor wear a baseball hat?

My coach wore a straw hat too.

I was trying to remember.

Couldn't picture him in a baseball hat but knew that he wore something.

But it does mean they aren't any good, or you would have seen them.

So all good coaches wear baseball caps.

I beg to disagree. Tannie Ans never wears one, and she is the best coach I ever met.

Lydiard never wore one. I never saw Harry Groves in one.

hola!

Excuse me, I wear a dad hat, not a baseball hat.

Whoever downvoted this post should google for Anna Botha.

I wore one, just so I had something to throw when I got mad or ticked off!!

There was the head coach at Cortland in 2000’s who had absolutely no skills,

but spent the 5 hours of a track meet tucking his mullet behind his ears

what a freak.

IIRC Cornell's Hall of Fame coach Jack Warner wore a short-brim fedora. Don't recall ever seeing him in a baseball cap.

Of course, he also wore jacket-and-tie at track meets.

In my own early days as a coach, I did not wear a cap. Had to have my nose replaced a few years ago, and now I wear a cap consistently.

BTW Jack Daniels, who was a decent coach, generally wore a broad-brim Western (aka "cowboy") hat.

Coaches do NOT always wear baseball caps.

I'll have you know I wear my lifeguard hat significantly more than my athletic net baseball cap!

I used to go hatless, and then the hair started leaving me. Sunburn from a Saturday meet without a hat really hurts. Baseball caps are the best fit. Then one season, I noticed how dark and dried out the tops of my ears were getting, so out came the bucket hat,

It's an intimidation tactic to other coaches. The more worn out and sun faded your hat is, the better your team will likely perform. Gotta put in them hours boiiiii.
